Work is under way for a set of icons that will land in Dapper. These icons aim to make the most of the existing Ubuntu palette. A snapshot of work in progress is provided below. Please send comments to the art team.

Tango style

This is a proof of concept "tangoification" of new ubuntu icon design, making those icons tango style require only little changes

You can find tango guidelines [http://tango-project.org/Tango_Icon_Theme_Guidelines here]

In these icons, I slightly changed the color to comform better to the tango palette, added some perspective, made the stroke a tad lighter and added an inner light stroke (so the icons looks good on any background).

You can find find svgs [http://xoomer.virgilio.it/bat/orango-tango/scalable/ here].

This is a mix of "tangoified" ubuntu icons and other tango icons, see how well they blends.

Some of the application icons here are actually the upstream icons (banshee, evince, soundjuicer....)
